..More recent studies have begun to elucidate the molecular basis of the differences in progenitor cell subpopulations that control their developmental potential and responsiveness to environmental signals...

BMP and FGF regulate the development of EGF-responsive neural progenitor cells

..Our findings suggest that developmental changes in EGFR expression, together with changes in ligand expression regulate the migration of specific populations of cells in the telencephalon by a chemoattractive mechanism...
